Question

(i)Two charged particles having charge 2.0 × 10^–8 C and mass 1.8 × 10^-6 Kg each are joined by an insulating string of length 1 m and the system is kept on a smooth horizontal table. Find the tension in the string.(ii)If suddenly string is cut then what is the acceleration of each block (iii)Are they having equal acceleration

Answer 1

the force that each charge would be providing would be equal to tension in string......
acceleration of the two charges would be same as the forces are equal and opposite...
